OVERVIEW
The AD7190 is an ultralow noise ADC that incorporates a
∑-∆ modulator, a buffer, PGA, and on-chip digital filtering
intended for the measurement of wide dynamic range signals
such as those in pressure transducers, weigh scales, and strain
gauge applications.
The part can be configured to have two differential inputs or four
pseudo differential inputs that can be buffered or unbuffered.
Figure 18 shows the basic connections required to operate the part.
FILTER, OUTPUT DATA RATE, SETTLING TIME
A ∑-∆ ADC consists of a modulator followed by a digital filter.
The AD7190 has two filter options: a sinc
3
filter and a sinc
4
filter. The filter is selected using the SINC3 bit in the mode
register. When SINC3 is set to 0 (default value), the sinc
4
filter is
selected. The sinc
3
filter is selected when SINC3 is set to 1.
At low output data rates (<1 kHz), the noise-free resolution is
comparable for the two filter types. However, at the higher
output data rates, the sinc
4
filter gives better noise free
resolution.
The sinc
4
filter also leads to better 50 Hz and 60 Hz rejection.
While the notch positions are not affected by the order of the
filter, the higher order filter has wider notches, which leads to
better rejection in the band (±1 Hz) around the notches. It also
gives better stop-band attenuation. The benefit of the sinc
3
filter
is its lower settling time for the same output data rate.

The output data rate (the rate at which conversions are available
on a single channel when the ADC is continuously converting)
is equal to
f
ADC
= f
CLK
/(1024 × FS[9:0])
where:
f
ADC
is the output data rate.
f
CLK
= master clock (4.92 MHz nominal).
FS[9:0] is the decimal equivalent of Bit FS9 to Bit FS0 in the
mode register.
The output data rate can be programmed from 4.7 Hz to 4800 Hz;
that is, FS[9:0] can have a value from 1 to 1023.
The previous equation is valid for both the sinc
3
and sinc
4
filters. The settling time for the sinc
4
filter is equal to
t
SETTLE
= 4/f
ADC
Whereas the settling time for the sinc
3
filter is equal to
t
SETTLE
= 3/f

4
and sinc
3
filters, respectively, for an output data rate of 50 Hz.
